You learn better when you test yourself on an answer before you study it? Even more counterintuitive, our findings showcase that there is not one direct mechanism to this effect. Thank you @charan-neuro.bsky.social , @xiaonanl.bsky.social , and @jameswardantony.bsky.social ! doi.org/10.1037/xlm0...

Years ago my lab tried to brainstorm ways to separately manipulate low-level (texture/pattern) and high-level (scene/object) image properties, for studying visual representations in the brain. Thanks to imaginative work by PhD student Zall Hirschstein, we now have a stimulus set that does just that!

Being a scientist is my day job, but I also write and perform music. I've finally posted some live vids by my band, theNULL: youtu.be/Zdu6Z2XpqeM?... We also have an Instagram @thenull_davis and it would really help us to get some follows for getting gigs. Speaking of which, merch is coming soon!

New press on our study linking the locus coeruleus to memory formation 🔵: newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/bra... . “…at a time when legislation promises ‘big and beautiful change,’ it turns out one of the brain’s smallest players may have the biggest impact on how we understand and remember our lives.”

Scientists unravel how a tiny region of the brain helps us form distinct memories, opening new avenues for PTSD, Alzheimer’s research
The locus coeruleus works like a “reset” button that separates the memory of one meaningful event from the next.

I'm looking for a new full-time research assistant ("junior specialist"). It's not quite "lab manager" because I have someone who takes care of the administrative tasks, and here I'm looking for someone to help us get research done! Info is below, please pass on to any talented candidates, thanks!

Excited to share our new preprint! Using a narrative reading paradigm, we showed that temporal order memory reconstruction can depend on multiple sources of information - factors like knowledge about typical event order and hierarchical event structure can both play important roles! 📖🧠
